The aim of this publication is to offer a complete, easy-tounderstand and comprehensive overview on shoulder hemiarthroplasty focusing on the different design types, prosthetic generations, fixation techniques, indications and results.
Open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) indications were, fractures with high risk of neurovascular injury and engagement of the distal aspect of the proximal fragment in brachial muscles and unsatisfactory closed reductions.
Experiments on visual search have demonstrated the existence of a relatively large and reliable memory for which objects have been fixated; an indication of this memory is that revisits (fixations on previously fixated objects) typically comprise only about 5% of fixations.
The overall repression of C fixation is an indication of transition into a lowered metabolic state as a consequence of the cessation of growth.
Younger patients are also more likely to be involve in high energy poly-trauma [25], which is a relative indication for fixation of a humeral shaft fracture [26, 27].
Correct responses to the search target were immediately followed by the replacement of the central fixation dot with an indication of reward feedback in blue text (65 point font; 5° height), either '+10', denoting the receipt of 10 points, or '+1', denoting the receipt of 1 point.
The frequency of fusion we observed compares well with the fusion rates to the sacrum reported in other studies, especially in the setting of spinal deformity, which have varied widely depending on the indication and fixation techniques used [ 10, 11, 18, 20, 24, 32, 34, 35, 43].
Advances in the design of fixators and bone pins have expanded indications — external fixation as definitive fracture treatment is a real alternative for trauma surgeons.
A retrospective review was undertaken and the variables recorded included patient demographics, HIV status, CD4 count and use of antiretroviral medication, indications for circular fixation, type of external fixator used, pin track complications and treatment of these complications.
This study evaluated the functional and cosmetic results of mandibular basal osteotomy, introducing new indications and fixation alternatives.
